Desk Sessions with the Heavy Hitters

Desk Sessions with the Heavy Hitters.

There are moments when I sit down at my desk, light a candle, and surround myself with some of the finest crystals I’ve had the privilege to own and handle. This lineup is exactly why the hunt never gets old.

A massive natural, unheated Tanzanite alive with incredible pleochroism. A razor-sharp Pinky Mine double-terminated Amethyst from Namibia. A vibrant Chameleon Pocket Tourmaline from the Aricanga Mine, Brazil. A gemmy Aquamarine from Thanh Hóa Province, Vietnam. A spectacular Streep Mine Amethyst dusted with sparkling Analcime from Namibia. A beautifully etched Ukrainian Heliodor glowing with its unmistakable lemon-yellow color.

Six world-class crystals… six incredible localities… each one telling a story that took millions of years to write.

This is what fuels the passion. The hunt never ends, and neither does the appreciation for nature’s masterpieces.
